Minimum age: 10 years
Available: April 15th - October 31st
Duration: 12 hours
Day tour from Ljubljana and Bled to Soča valley. Optional activities: Canyoning, Rafting or Zipline.
We will start the day with a quick stop at Lake Jasna in Kranjska Gora. Then we will continue with a drive up the Vršič road pass. The road will take us into the hearth of Triglav national park. We will stop to enjoy the amazing views and breathe some fresh mountain air.
Afterwards we will descend into Trenta valley where, driving alongside Soča river, we will enjoy the surreal beauty of the area. We will stop at a few most scenic spots, including Soča river source and Soča gorge. At about noon time we will arrive to the town of Bovec, where we will take a short break.
After the break it is time for the adventure activities. You can choose between canyoning, rafting or zipline (extra cost 80 EUR pp). However, we know this is not for everyone, so you can choose not to participate in any of these activities. In such case you will have about 3 hours of free time to explore the town.
In the afternoon, when everyone finishes with their activities, we will visit Kozjak waterfall near the town of Kobarid. A short hike will take us to the magnificent waterfall hidden in a deep gorge.
To finsih the day, we will take the historic railway from the town of Most na Soči to Bohinjska Bistrica. The railway built in 1906 connects Soča valley with Sava valley and central Slovenia. It crosses some seriously steep landscape, and it takes us over a stone arch viaduct and through multiple tunnels. After unloading our car from the train in Bohinjska Bistrica, we have a half an hour drive to lake Bled and another 45 minutes to Ljubljana.
